These options now also work more consistently for different items. When old files are opened in 4.1 the options are mapped appropriately. The five placement options for articulations (which were confusing and, in any case, did not all work properly) - above staff, below staff, above chord, below chord, chord automatic - have been simplified to three: auto, above, below (PR 17640). Main implementation: Issue 17072 / PR 17303 Placement of articulations and ornaments ( handbook) Ornaments attached to notes in downstemmed voices (2 and 4) will now appear below the stave by default.Īccidentals that were added added to trill lines in the 'old' way (by applying an accidental from the Accidentals palette) are mapped to the new system.

All these ornaments also play back with the proper intervals (Issue 17645 / PR 17768). Accidentals which arise because of ornaments also require that those pitches have their accidental confirmed or cancelled if they appear later in the bar. The ornaments are aware of the key signature and of other accidentals in the bar, which can determine whether ornament accidentals need to be shown. For trills over an interval larger than a second, a bracketed auxiliary note is shown. Main implementation: Issue 15332 / PR 17515įor standard ornaments (trills, mordents, turns, etc) the interval to the note above, and below where applicable, can now be specified.Īccidentals can be shown above (and below) the ornament where necessary, and this behaviour can be customised for each ornament. Opening files from one version in an older version is not generally supported while it may be possible to open a 4.1 file in 4.0, the results will be unpredictable at best.įor (over-)detailed information about changes to style settings, see this page. Trill lines with accidentals above will be converted to 'new style' ornaments the position of the accidental will change slightlyĪlso please note that MuseScore 4.1 uses a new version of the file format.Stem lengths of notes connected by two-note tremolos will be reset.

Vertical offsets of rests will be reset.

As such, you should expect small changes in layout. NOTE: When opening a file from an older version in 4.1, some items will have some properties reset or changed to take advantage of the new features.
